If you tell me how to test those I'll be happy to give them a try for you and let you know, all I can tell you for now is that my 5350 with Windows 7 handles deinterlacing from my tv stick in XBMC's settings just fine and apart from a bug in XBMC (but not in other players) which I've posted about before with some uncompressed blurays my box has handled everything I've thrown at it so far.
ok. at first look at catalyst control center under video/quality for automatic deinterlacing. disable/unmark this and put the slider below to right/vector adaptiv deinterlacing. this forces va-deinterlacing. within xbmc enable dxva2 and set render method to dxva. set the % value below the render metod to 0 or 10%. play livetv or video and go to the video settings (in confluence the navigation bar below). set deinterlacing to auto, deinterlacing methode to dxva best and scaling/resize to lanzcos3 (not the optimized one). set "save this settings for all movies". restart livetv/movie or xbmc. test some 720p or 720i or 1080i contend and press button "o" while playback and look for "dropped frames".. thanks in advance!
I guess the XBMC settings are for Gotham because I don't see those settings on Frodo 12.3, I can tell you the change in the Catalyst settings have made no difference in that everything plays just as well as it did before.
Sorry I've spent way too long setting my new box up and plan to enjoy it and the content on it for a little while before upgrding to Gotham and then spending hours tweaking everything again.
